Good morning, fellow sobernauts, IWNDWYT 😁!
We may be anonymous strangers on the internet, but we have one thing in common. We may be a world apart, but we’re here together!
Welcome to the 24 hour pledge! I’m pledging myself to not drinking today, and invite you to do the same.
Maybe you’re new to c/stop drinking and have a hard time deciding what to do next. Maybe you’re like me and feel you need a daily commitment or maybe you’ve been sober for a long time and want to inspire others.
It doesn’t matter if you’re still hung over from a three day bender or been sober for years, if you just woke up or have already completed a sober day. For the next 24 hours, let’s not drink alcohol!
One thing at a time, one thing at a time.
I’ve seen people do the “I’m going to get sober and I’m going to stop smoking and I’m going to start [an unfeasible exercise programme from scratch] and I’m going to lose weight and …” thing and it never works out as they hoped.
So my advice, which is worth what you paid for it, obviously, is to take it easy. Get a stretch of sobriety under your belt before making any other changes. You may find that your weed use decreases naturally anyway, and you can start the 12-step programme when you’re in a different headspace with it.
good insight thankyou, yeah us addicts really wanna change the world in a weekend. one thing at a time.
